A showcase of local businesses & community spirit:

At Black Country Firewood, we love working with local and like-minded businesses and our open day is the perfect showcase of that collaboration. From fire safety to fine wine, sweeping chimneys to family fun, it’s a brilliant day out for the whole community.

Mike Snelson, Owner of Black Country Firewood says: “We can’t wait to welcome everybody to our seventh annual open day. It’s one of the best days of the year for us. We get to show our customers how we do everything. It gives the opportunity for likeminded enthusiastic people to get together, chat and ask questions, see and demo some of the firewood processing equipment we use, and meet industry experts.

"The whole family is welcome to join us on Saturday, October 11 for a free day out that’s educational, exciting and fun!”

Come along, bring the family, and join us for a fun and educational day out.
